[In vitro influence of biologically active factors of microorganisms on antibiotic susceptibility of Yersinia pestis].
To estimate the in vitro susceptibility of the plague microbe to chemotherapeutics, various experimental models with the maximum closeness to the host conditions were tested. The tests included the assay of the drug antibacterial activity against the plague microbe by the method of two-fold dilutions in biological fluids i.e. human normal (nonimmune) serum (HNS) and guinea pig heparinized blood. Hottinger broth was used as the control. It was shown that any system used for estimation of the drug MIC influenced the plague microbe susceptibility. Thus, the serum complement increased the antibacterial activity of cefotaxime, rifampicin, doxycycline, erythromycin and polymyxin B. In the blood of a susceptible host (guinea pigs) the activity of quinoxydine and dioxydine against the plague microbe markedly increased while the effect of benzylpenicillin, cefotaxime and furazolidone decreased. The data on the in vitro activity of the antibiotics in blood were comparable with those on their in vivo therapeutic efficacy.
